The amounts and sources of distributions reported in this 19(a) Notice are only estimates and not for tax reporting
purposes. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend upon the Fund’s investment
experience during the remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. The Fund will send you a
Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year that will tell you how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes. The Fund
estimates that it has distributed more than its income and net realized capital gains; therefore, a portion of your distribution
may be a return of capital. A return of capital may occur for example, when some or all of the money that you invested in the Fund
is paid back to you. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Fund’s investment performance and should not
be confused with ‘yield’ or ‘income.’
Presented below are return figures, based on the change in the Fund’s Net Asset Value per share (“NAV”), compared to the
annualized distribution rate for this current distribution as a percentage of the NAV on the last business day of the month prior
to distribution record date.

Past performance is not indicative of future results.
^ Based on the Fund’s NAV as of October 31, 2018.
+ Cumulative distribution rate is based on distributions paid to date for the period November 1, 2018 through
November 30, 2018.
* Cumulative fiscal year-to-date return is based on the change in NAV including distributions paid and assuming reinvestment of
these distributions for the period November 1, 2017 through October 31, 2018.
** The 5-year average annual total return is based on change in NAV including distributions paid and assuming reinvestment of
these distributions and is through the last business day of the month prior to the month of the current distribution record
date.
While the NAV performance may be indicative of the Fund’s investment performance, it does not measure the value of a
shareholder’s investment in the Fund. The value of a shareholder’s investment in the Fund is determined by the Fund’s market price,
which is based on the supply and demand for the Fund’s shares in the open market. Shareholders should not draw any conclusions
about the Fund’s investment performance from the amount of this distribution or from the terms of the Fund’s Managed Distribution
Plan.
Furthermore, the Board of Trustees reviews the amount of any potential distribution and the income, capital gain or capital
available. The Board of Trustees will continue to monitor the Fund’s distribution level, taking into consideration the Fund’s net
asset value and the financial market environment. The Fund’s distribution policy is subject to modification by the Board of
Trustees at any time. The distribution rate should not be considered the dividend yield or total return on an investment in the
Fund.
